Happy Thursday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For today’s lesson, please go over Greta Thunberg\u2019s story and activities from this week one last time. Next week we will have a new lesson!

Below are some fun Recycling games to play! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LITTER CRITTERS – LEARN TO SORT AND RECYCLE GAME!<\/a><\/strong>
Kids learn the basics of recycling with the Litter Critters! Kids will sort trash into four different litter categories: recyclables, compost, electronic waste, and landfill waste. In Easy Mode, kids sort trash into one category of litter at a time. In Hard Mode, kids must sort trash into all four categories at once. Try each level if you can!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bottle Bowling<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You Will Need:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • 2-liter soda pop bottles or dishwashing detergent bottles and small bleach bottles<\/li>
  • Lightweight balls<\/li>
  • Sand<\/li>
  • Funnel<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    How To:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Wash and dry the bottles before making the pins. Ensure that the bottles are thoroughly dried before proceeding with the next method.<\/li>
    2. Put an inch of sand in each bottle using a funnel. The sand will weigh down the pins, making it harder for the kids to knock down. If you want to create a set of bright bowling pins, fill the bottle with scraps of colorful tissue or crepe paper.<\/li>
    3. Set up the plastic bowling pins on the lawn or playing area and hand over the ball to the participants.<\/li>
    4. Now give five chances to each child to knock down the pins.<\/li>
    5. The player who bowls down the pins fastest will be the winner.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      For today’s story we are going to read my FAVORITE Dr. Seuss story, The Lorax!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
